Make content about: Bellini is ready for adoption
Bellini arrived as an ordinary male kitten, but a routine vet check revealed he is a rare hermaphrodite.
This story
Taken in at just a few days old in St Helens, nine-week-old kitten Bellini was initially thought to be male. During preparation for neutering, vets discovered mixed male and female reproductive organs, making Bellini a rare hermaphrodite kitten. Bellini also has a slight heart murmur and is now ready for adoption alongside litter-mate sister Daiquiri.
